Marilynne, I know I have said this before but you just amaze me on not only the amount of subjects you shoot but also the variety. Makes me want to retire my camera equipment!!!

 

[Marilynne]

Thanks Jeff. Please don't retire your gear, just come visit me and you can teach me some stuff.

Wound up at the beach yesterday. Hadn't planned on it. The caution flag is flying.

Thanks for the beach shots Marilynne. I believe it's the first time I've seen any beach images taken by you! I guess there were no critters lurking?

 

[Marilynne]

Thanks Chris. I've posted a few over the years. Very windy and didn't see any thing, man or beast where I was on the beach.

 

[Marilynne]

Spotted this guy after I got all the sand off my sneakers. Wouldn't have been able to get these shots if I had been on the beach.

Did I run over something?

 

[Marilynne]

The Atlantic Ocean where it meets Delray Beach - after this, the clouds really built up and we had two raindrops, but that was enough to make me get outta there.

 

[Marilynne]

We've been seeing these Hooded Mergansers in a canal about a mile from our house. They're very skiddish. We tried to stop before they saw us, but it didn't work. The flew to the east.

Got a little closer

Male - I love the way they change the shape of their head

Female - she was harder to shoot

 

[Marilynne]

About a half mile down the road, this family was in the middle of the road. One vehicle stopped for them. The next vehicle was honking her horn, when Chris jumped off his bike to stop traffic. Couldn't get my camera out quick enough to shoot them in the street, but did manage this shot. We tried to follow them, but lost them in a development.

We found them a half hour later. They were crossing a six lane road and all of them made it safely across, but created quite a back up on Jog Rd.

Do not disturb...
